Creating Icons

Icons are only used when packaging but creating them is complex enough to be in the Developers section.

Complex? How hard is it to draw a picture? If you are graphically challenged (me) thats one problem. Then you have to create the right number of icon sizes in the correct formats and you have to bundle them. Did I mention you need Linux, OSX and Windows icons and a way to do all three?

There is another complication. In Shoes 3.2.19 and less, Windows icons have to be 8 bit (not 32 bit). That rule could change.

You'll need your favorite drawing program. A program or two to convert to the other platforms.
